I do not recall ever seeing these beautiful birds before, but I started spotting them so I bought them a feeder all their own.

I think this is the Northern Oriole (Baltimore Oriole Variety) from what I can tell by the Identifier that was included with the feeder.

I have a few more of these, I sat for a long time with the the canon 450d and canon 70-300 IS USM lens trying for some shots. I had a heck of a time with exposure settings, as I was shooting towards the west in the late afternoon light. I shot this one just today, and I do hope you like it, I do not like the area around his beak but I guess that was from the strong light, and perhaps the light cast off of the feeder.

Thank you for commenting, on my first ever Oriole upload.
